## How To Contribute
### Reporting Bugs
This section guides you through submitting a bug report. Following these guidelines helps maintainers and the community understand your report :pencil:, reproduce the behavior :computer: :computer:, and find related reports :mag_right:.
Before creating bug reports, please check the [before-submitting-a-bug-report](#before-submitting-a-bug-report) checklist as you might find out that you don't need to create one. When you are creating a bug report, please [include as many details as possible](#how-do-i-submit-a-good-bug-report). Fill in the [ISSUE-TEMPLATE.md](.github/issue_template.md), the information it asks for helps us resolve issues faster.
> **Note:** If you find a **Closed** issue that seems like it is the same thing that you're experiencing, open a new issue and include a link to the original issue in the body of your new one.
#### Before Submitting A Bug Report
* **Confirm the problem** is reproducible in the latest version of the software
* **Check the [Debugging Wiki]**. You might be able to find the cause of the problem and fix things yourself.
* **Perform a [cursory search of project issues](https://github.com/search?q=+is%3Aissue+repo%3APegasysEng/Pantheon)** to see if the problem has already been reported. If it has **and the issue is still open**, add a comment to the existing issue instead of opening a new one.
#### How Do I Submit A (Good) Bug Report?
Bugs are tracked as [GitHub issues](https://guides.github.com/features/issues/). Issues should and provide the following information by filling in the [ISSUE-TEMPLATE.md](.github/issue_template.md).
Explain the problem and include additional details to help maintainers reproduce the problem:
* **Use a clear and descriptive title** for the issue to identify the problem.
* **Describe the exact steps which reproduce the problem** in as many details as possible. For example, start by explaining how you started Pantheon, e.g. which command exactly you used in the terminal, or how you started it otherwise.
* **Provide specific examples to demonstrate the steps**. Include links to files or GitHub projects, or copy/pasteable snippets, which you use in those examples. If you're providing snippets in the issue, use [Markdown code blocks](https://help.github.com/articles/markdown-basics/#multiple-lines).
* **Describe the behavior you observed after following the steps** and point out what exactly is the problem with that behavior.
* **Explain which behavior you expected to see instead and why.**
* **Include screenshots** which show you following the described steps and clearly demonstrate the problem.
Provide more context by answering these questions:
* **Did the problem start happening recently** (e.g. after updating to a new version of the software) or was this always a problem?
* If the problem started happening recently, **can you reproduce the problem in an older version of the software?** What's the most recent version in which the problem doesn't happen?
* **Can you reliably reproduce the issue?** If not, provide details about how often the problem happens and under which conditions it normally happens.
Include details about your configuration and environment:
* **Which version of the software are you using?** You can get the exact version by running `pantheon -v` in your terminal.
* **What OS & Version are you running
* **For linux, What Kernel are you running? You can get the exact version by running `uname -a` in your terminal.
* **Are you running in a virtual machine?** If so, which VM software are you using and which operating systems and versions are used for the host and the guest?
* **Are you running in a docker container?** If so, what version of docker?
* **Are you running in a a Cloud?** If so, which one, and what type/size of VM is it?
* **What version of Java are you running?** You can get the exact version by looking at the pantheon logfile during startup.

## Your First Code Contribution
Start by looking through the 'beginner' and 'help wanted' issues:
* [Beginner issues][beginner] - issues which should only require a few lines of code, and a test or two.
* [Help wanted issues][help-wanted] - issues which should be a bit more involved than `beginner` issues.
### Local Development
The codebase is maintained using the "*contributor workflow*" where everyone without exception contributes patch proposals using "*pull-requests*". This facilitates social contribution, easy testing and peer review.
To contribute a patch, the workflow is as follows:

In general a commit serves a single purpose and diffs should be easily comprehensible. For this reason do not mix any formatting fixes or code moves with actual code changes.
## Style Guide
### Architectural Best Practices
`La mode se démode, le style jamais.`
Questions on architectural best practices will be guided by the principles set forth in [Effective Java](http://index-of.es/Java/Effective%20Java.pdf) by Joshua Bloch
Guided by the immortal words of Gabrielle Bonheur, we strive to adhere strictly to best stylistic practices for each line of code in this software.
### Automated Test coverage
Testing is 100% automated for this product. There is no such thing as a manual test. All code submissions must be accompanied by appropriate tests. The goal is to provide confidence in the code’s robustness, while avoiding redundant tests.
At this stage one should expect comments and reviews from fellow contributors. You can add more commits to your pull request by committing them locally and pushing to your fork until you have satisfied all feedback. That being said, before the pull request is merged, it should be squashed.
### Pull Requests
#### Stylistic
The process described here has several goals:
The fundamental resource Pantheon contributors should familiarize themselves with is Oracle's [Code Conventions for the Java TM Programming Language](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/codeconvtoc-136057.html), to establish a general programme on Java coding. Furthermore, all pull-requests should be formatted according to the [Google Java Style Guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/javaguide.html), as the the [Google Java Style reformatter](https://github.com/google/google-java-format) is a component piece of our continuous integration architecture, code that does not comply stylistically will fail to pass the requisite candidate tests.
- Maintain Product quality
- Fix problems that are important to users
- Engage the community in working toward the best possible product
- Enable a sustainable system for maintainers to review contributions
- Further explanation on PR & commit messages can be found in this post: [How to Write a Git Commit Message](https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/).
#### Architectural Best Practices
Please follow these steps to have your contribution considered by the approvers:
Questions on architectural best practices will be guided by the principles set forth in [Effective Java](http://index-of.es/Java/Effective%20Java.pdf) by Joshua Bloch
1. Complete the ICLA, as described in [CLA.md]
2. Follow all instructions in [PULL-REQUEST-TEMPLATE.md](.github/pull_request_template.md)
3. Include appropriate test coverage. Testing is 100% automated. There is no such thing as a manual test.
4. Follow the [styleguides](#Style Guides)
5. After you submit your pull request, verify that all [status checks](https://help.github.com/articles/about-status-checks/) are passing <details><summary>What if the status checks are failing?</summary>If a status check is failing, and you believe that the failure is unrelated to your change, please leave a comment on the pull request explaining why you believe the failure is unrelated. A maintainer will re-run the status check for you. If we conclude that the failure was a false positive, then we will open an issue to track that problem with our status check suite.</details>
While the prerequisites above must be satisfied prior to having your pull request reviewed, the reviewer(s) may ask you to complete additional design work, tests, or other changes before your pull request can be ultimately accepted. Please refer to [code-reviews.md].
# Style Guides
## Java Code Style Guide
We use Google's Java coding conventions for the project. To reformat code, run:
```
./gradlew spotlessApply
```
Code style will be checked automatically during a build.
### Other Java Code Conventions
We have a set of coding conventions that we try to adhere to. These are not strictly enforced during the build, but should be adhered to and called out in code reviews.
* Avoid abbreviations in variable names (ie, use message instead of msg)
* never 2 blank lines in a row
Exceptions:
* Allowed abbreviation: Tx instead of Transaction (it's historical)
## Git Commit Messages & Pull Request Messages
* Use the present tense ("Add feature" not "Added feature")
* Use the imperative mood ("Move cursor to..." not "Moves cursor to...")
* Limit the first line to 72 characters or less
* Reference issues and pull requests liberally after the first line
* Consider starting the commit message with an applicable emoji:
* :art: `:art:` when improving the format/structure of the code
* :racehorse: `:racehorse:` when improving performance
* :non-potable_water: `:non-potable_water:` when plugging memory leaks
* :memo: `:memo:` when writing docs
* :penguin: `:penguin:` when fixing something on Linux
* :apple: `:apple:` when fixing something on macOS
* :checkered_flag: `:checkered_flag:` when fixing something on Windows
* :bug: `:bug:` when fixing a bug
* :fire: `:fire:` when removing code or files
* :green_heart: `:green_heart:` when fixing the CI build
* :white_check_mark: `:white_check_mark:` when adding tests
* :lock: `:lock:` when dealing with security
* :arrow_up: `:arrow_up:` when upgrading dependencies
* :arrow_down: `:arrow_down:` when downgrading dependencies
* :shirt: `:shirt:` when removing lint warnings

**TODO: Create Documentation Style Guide**
# Issue and Pull Request Labels
#### Clear Commit/PR Messages
This section lists the labels we use to help us track and manage issues and pull requests.
Commit messages should be verbose by default consisting of a short subject line (50 chars max), a blank line and detailed explanatory text as separate paragraph(s), unless the title alone is self-explanatory (such as "`Implement EXP EVM opcode`") in which case a single title line is sufficient. Commit messages should be helpful to people reading your code in the future, so explain the reasoning for your decisions. Further explanation on commit messages can be found [here](https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/).
[GitHub search](https://help.github.com/articles/searching-issues/) makes it easy to use labels for finding groups of issues or pull requests you're interested in.
#### Test coverage
The labels are loosely grouped by their purpose, but it's not required that every issue have a label from every group or that an issue can't have more than one label from the same group.
The test cases are sufficient enough to provide confidence in the code’s robustness, while avoiding redundant tests.
Please open an issue on `PegasysEng/Pantheon` if you have suggestions for new labels.
#### Readability
#### Type of Issue and Issue State

# Overview
This project is led by a benevolent dictator (PegaSys) and managed by the community. That is, the community actively contributes to the day-to-day maintenance of the project, but the general strategic line is drawn by the benevolent dictator. In case of disagreement, they have the last word. It is the benevolent dictator’s job to resolve disputes within the community and to ensure that the project is able to progress in a coordinated way. In turn, it is the community’s job to guide the decisions of the benevolent dictator through active engagement and contribution.
# Principles
The community adheres to the following principles:
* Open: Pantheon is open source. See repository guidelines and CLA, below.
* Welcoming and respectful: See Code of Conduct, below.
